Mine was a Clark Griffith portrait that had the really thick yellow tape from the day at top and bottom, heavily creased and severely rounded corners. Bought in 1986 as a walk in to the card shop I worked in as a kid. Regretfully, it was sold as part of a partial set many years ago(I think). Would love to have it back. Keep your eyes out!

Amazing story Mike - really heart warming and made my morning! My first T206 was given to me by my wife last Christmas (George McQuillan) and I have been in love ever since (with the cards that is...my wife much longer than that)

I am sure I am in the extreme minority, but that Becker card may be my favorite T206. My first was a Snodgrass.

Nice , refreshing post!!
Believe it or not my first T206 , I didn't know what I had bought. I purchased in a group of "old" cards at Hillsville VA in 2012 I think it was. It sat on top of a pelican case in my office for probably 6 months until one day I decided to look at it. Then I decided to research it. Much to my surprise it turned out to be fairly rare. Sent to PSA , came back as a one. But that is OKAY . at the time that would make only the second Billy Purtell BROAD LEAF 350 in existence. Thus began the T206 bug. Thomas
